Book Description
THE LAST GOODBYE Widower Dominic Dunn isn’t sure what to think of his wife’s pre-planned trip for him a year after her death. It’s her effort to force him from his work desk to the coast and the peacefulness she’d found at the Carolina Cove Inn. Innkeeper Ireland Cohen is a single mom with an impressionable son, and after the kid gets himself into trouble, Dominic offers to lend a hand. It’s the least he can do when Ireland was such a good friend to his wife after her diagnosis. As the hot summer days at the beach turn into breezy evenings, Ireland and Dominic find their shared memories and friendship turning into more. They’re drawn to each other, fighting an attraction neither of them want because of their pasts. He’s only visiting, and Ireland has a strict rule about dating tourists. But as his trip draws to a close, they both wonder—is this their last goodbye? LATTES AND LULLABYES Cooper Bale earned a name for himself as a software engineer and, until a few months ago, lived a life men dream of—until that life exploded with a phone call. Now Cooper struggles to settle into Carolina Cove as a single parent and finds himself envious of his dog when Rocco’s escapes prove to be the canine’s way of visiting the local coffee shop to get some much needed peace. Coming from a close-knit military family, London Cohen learned at an early age to love fast because time is short. People come and go, but each is special. She feels instant attraction when meeting Rocco’s owner, but she doesn’t understand Cooper’s mile-high barriers when it comes to certain things—like the kids in his care or his estranged father, who happens to be one of her favorite customers. London finds herself drawn into the crossfire between Cooper and his family, but can she help them find peace before it’s too late? MAP OF DREAMS Carolina Cohen dreams of traveling the world. She works a multitude of jobs during Carolina Cove’s tourist season to travel the winter months until her cash runs out. Snagging her dream job as an international house sitter to a company catering to the elite would enable her to do so much more. Too bad it’s as likely as winning the lottery. Silas Fletcher is a single dad of an eight-year-old genius daughter who doesn’t have time for games. He works long hours and does all he can to be the dad his daughter deserves. Carolina is a walking disaster. She’s gorgeous and funny, intriguing, but flaky. Still, when he’s in desperate need of childcare, Carolina comes through for him and the animosity felt after a disastrous first meeting ends up turning into something more. Much more. But as school begins and the tourist season draws to a close, Carolina must choose. Does she stay with the sexy, single dad and precocious kid who’ve stolen her heart—or follow her map of dreams? WORTH THE RISK Frankie Cohen can’t believe that some invisible magnet or higher plan has brought Grayson Carter back in her life yet again. But no matter how gorgeous or charming, she isn’t giving Grayson another chance to break her heart. Not after she’d barely survived the last time.... Grayson has made some big mistakes where Frankie is concerned, but he’s not about to let her get away again without telling her everything. He regrets hurting her and wants to make things right, but when they finally get close and he learns the full extent of the pain he’s caused her, he knows the best thing he can do for her is let her go.... Frankie knows Grayson’s guilt is the source of his fear. So how can she convince him love is worth the risk? LOST LOVE FOUND Holland Cohen has a love-hate relationship with her job. It’s a dream profession, traveling the world to value, list and sell items the rich no longer want. She’s seen the best and worst of their private lives, but she wonders if she’ll ever find a love like that described in the love letters hidden in one of her latest assignments... Maximilian Bane is jaded by the attention his family’s wealth brings out in the opposite sex but Holland Cohen seems to be the exception. Time will tell and time is something they have as she works through his grandmother’s estate. Holland’s fascination with the old letters is matched by her growing feelings for Max, but when the truth results in his grandmother’s disappearance, Max and Holland go head-to-head in a battle of wills that could cost them any hope of a future together. Once hearts are broken, can lost love be found again?

Book Description
This boxed set contains books 4 and 5 of the Carolina Cove series. Titles included are: Sea Blue and Loving You: She’s off-limits. That’s the first thing Dr. Logan Davenport thinks every morning before going to work at the same hospital as counselor Zoey Barnes. Officially friend-zoned because he can’t stand the thought of losing her lifelong friendship, his secret crush can never be revealed. But when Zoey is injured by a patient and Logan realizes how close to the breaking point Zoey actually is, the doctor in him—and the man who loves her more than he should—can’t ignore it. Zoey Barnes is all too aware of the attention her childhood friend receives from others in the hospital. Logan’s good looks and bedside manner leave many fawning over him. But when he “kidnaps” her after she’s injured and takes her to his mountain retreat to heal, she’s the one drawn by his bedside attentions. Still, she’s seen what love does to perfectly sane people, and since she’s spent her career helping people recover from the pain inflicted by the ones they love, she knows not to let him get too close. Logan calls her forced vacation a sabbatical. She calls it torture. Nature? Hikes? Seeing Logan in his swim trunks beneath a waterfall? After too many days together and far too many salacious thoughts, reality returns with a punch. They finally go home to Carolina Cove but Zoey can’t forget exchanging one forbidden what-if kiss. When her patients need her and crashing and burning is one of the many possible outcomes with Logan, can she risk falling in love? and Sea View and Something New: Sophia Shipley will do pretty much anything to keep her secrets secret until she’s ready to reveal them to her family. Coming back to Carolina Cove in disgrace is hard enough, but that doesn’t compare to knowing all of her hard work and career advances were for nothing. Her job in finance, her life in the financial sector, is gone due to the whispers of fraud now attached to her name. She has to start over from scratch and she has no idea where to begin… Dawson Blackwell can’t believe his luck. He’d finally managed to buy out the awful neighbor next door and renovate the rundown cottage for a rental only to discover his childhood nemesis to be its first guest. From rivals in the classroom to enemies on the debate team and competitors for class president, he and Sophia had butted heads at every turn. But as neighbors and unlikely friends, he finds himself battling a different kind of intensity towards the grown-up version of the spoiled rich girl he’d known. They say opposites attract but when Dawson finds himself going after the same job as Sophia, will their competitive personalities lead to a show down—or will their forbidden love lead to something else entirely?

E. F. Benson's 'Mapp and Lucia Series' is a delightful collection of 6 novels and 2 short stories that follow the social interactions and rivalries of two formidable characters, Mrs. Emmeline Lucas (Lucia) and Miss Elizabeth Mapp in the idyllic village of Tilling. The series is known for its witty dialogue, intricate plot twists, and subtle humor, showcasing Benson's skill in portraying the absurdities and intricacies of small-town life in England during the early 20th century. Readers will be captivated by the blend of comedy and social commentary present in each installment of the series. E. F. Benson, a prolific writer of fiction, essays, and biographies, drew inspiration from his own experiences in small English villages to create the vivid and entertaining world of Tilling and its eccentric inhabitants. His keen observations of human behavior and his satirical writing style are apparent throughout the 'Mapp and Lucia Series', adding depth and charm to the characters and their interactions. I highly recommend E. F. Benson's 'Mapp and Lucia Series' to those who enjoy witty social satire and classic English humor. This collection is a delightful exploration of human nature, social dynamics, and the quirks of village life, making it a must-read for fans of comedic literature and historical fiction.
